Need help identifying a bike please

[MBayles]

Hi,
We purchased this bike from Shannons. We are opening a motorbike museum in Tasmania shortly. If anyone has any photos or history of this bike - it would be very much appreciated

The machine belonged to Bruce Arnfield from Ballarat for many years. I think it was built by him, or rebuilt? I'm pretty sure he chose the colour.

Contact myself via the form below along with photos of the engine number, crankcase mating number and both UFM & RFM frame numbers and I will look the bike up in the Machine Database and factory records and let you know what I find:

I am guessing the bike was imported into Australia?

Gene, if you have Brian Greenfield's book you can identify machines originally imported into Australia. If you haven't, then contact me and I can look in that book for you. Cheers, Charlie.

Cheers Charlie. I keep meaning to buy it, one of these days I’ll get around to it.
